Yes, you can absolutely share any/all inspiration photos with us, and we prefer you share them with us when we are creating your timeline. You can share your inspiration photos via a pinterest link, a canva doc, or google drive folder.  Certain photos may require specific lighting conditions, architectural elements (such as steps, elevators, bars or cobblestone) and/or backdrops that may not be available on your wedding day. We want to be sure we have a creative plan in place ahead of time to capture the photos you want, and that we have enough time & resources allotted to  capture your preferred poses and compositions. 

We will start your formal timeline & shotlists about 3 months prior to your wedding date. At that time, we will be in touch with a catch-all questionnaire for you to fill out and return to us. This questionnaire captures your current start times, locations, addresses, sensitive information, reception formalities, and your preferences. Once we have that questionnaire back, we will start a first draft of your timeline and reach out to you to set up a call. During this first planning call, we will review the day-of timeline and fill in the details.  After the call, we will send you a copy of the timeline and a list of any outstanding questions or details that need to be answered prior to your wedding. Your timeline needs to be finalized 1 week prior to your event. 

Our standard protocol is to have both photographers start and end at the same time. This protocol can be reviewed and revised if the logistics & travel required for your event require us to stagger the teams’ start or end times. This will be evaluated on a case by case basis. 

No, an assistant is there to only help the primary photographer carry gear, arrange groupings, move furniture, set-up lighting, etc. 

You may add time to your contract, but you can not subtract hours of coverage.  Additional hours will be charged at the photographer’s current rate, and this rate will be written into your contract at the time of signing.  If you decide to add additional time to the package on the day of your wedding, a $75 fee will be added to each team member’s hourly rate. The invoice will be sent after the wedding.
